Bug Description

While attempting to install Kubuntu Dapper RC, this is the error I got:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 120, in ?
    install(sys.argv[1])
  File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 54, in install
    ret = wizard.run()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 311, in run
    self.process_step()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 729, in process_step
    self.mountpoints_to_summary()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 1034, in mountpoints_to_summary
    self.progress_loop()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 524, in progress_loop
    raise RuntimeError, "Install failed with exit code %s" % ret
RuntimeError: Install failed with exit code 1

It seemed to have gotten through most of it, so I'm going to reboot and see if it works.

Thanks for your report. This is also bug 46764. As a workaround, use a non-XFS root filesystem, or create a non-XFS /boot filesystem; grub doesn't cope reliably with being installed to XFS on many systems.
